“Family gatherings, and dinners, card games, and other social activities with friends and neighbors have contributed to new cases in Steuben County recently,” said Darlene Smith, Public Health Director for Steuben County. “The gatherings do not have to be overly large to produce multiple cases if one person in the group is positive without knowing it. Knowing the prevention practices of others during this time is a high priority to consider when gathering together to prevent the spread of COVID-19.”

Wayne County

829 positive cases have been confirmed as of Friday. 151 cases are active, and 16 are in the hospital.

As of Friday, 12 of the cases are in skilled nursing or adult care facilities. The DeMay Living Center in Newark had originally reported dozens of cases in residents and staff members, but that number has decreased.

666 of the cases have resolved their cases.

As of Friday, 28,980 tests have been conducted; 28,151 have come back negative.

Wayne County Public Health officials say a number of cases have been traced to people not wearing masks or who have taken part in large, non-distanced gatherings. They are strongly recommending social distancing in public by remaining six feet or more apart, wearing a mask in public places, washing hands and using hand sanitizer frequently, and avoiding going to large gathering.

Deborah Minor, Yates County Public Health Director, is urging people to use cloth face coverings when they are going out in public, but reminds people that it is not a substitute for social distancing.

“These coverings help to slow the spread, primarily by reducing the risk of someone giving the virus to others – especially when that someone may have the virus but does not know it,” Minor said.
